Swallow on the GMKtec EVO-X3
| Quant | Fits? | Max context | Speed | Beyond context |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FP16 | yes | 1733k | 1188.6-1444.6 t/s | ~46.4-56.4 (slow) |
| Q8 | yes | 1734k | 2377.1-2889.1 t/s | ~92.9-112.9 (slow) |
| Q4 | yes | 1734k | 4244.9-5159.2 t/s | ~165.8-201.5 (slow) |
Estimate (memory-bound). Beyond "max context" the KV cache spills to SSD swap and speed drops to the "beyond" figure.
